Congratulations, the project looks good. I will keep it in mind. I didn't install sometime ago partially because I was already running a Gitolite instance and wasn't sure it would play nice.

Great to see Postgres support, can I ask why MySql is the recommended DB?

The install instructions are still quite long but it is really good to see them done properly with a separate non-root user. The suggested Ruby version isn't the latest (even on the 1.9.3 branch) although I'm not sure that matters.

Hi, in the Padrino project, we usually attribute by (GH) nickname, because thats what most programmers build their identity around. Also, all involved are mentioned. In that case, it would be: - API: improved return codes and docs. (Xylakant, justahero) See ours: https://github.com/padrino/padrino-framework/blob/master/CHA...

Good points. I've added Sebastian Ziebell. About mentioning usernames, I figured it might get a bit confusing when we get public projects on GitLab.com, you would have to guess which platform the username belongs to. What do you think?

Thanks for understanding in https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/pull/3303#discussion_r3...

The attribution was merged and is live on https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/master/CHANGELOG#L...

About MySql, it is the db that most existing installations use and it is well tested. Also we had problems with deadlocks on Postgres during integration tests on Travis CI. I must admit that I think Postgres has the momentum and look forward to recommending it in the future.

Good point about the ruby version, I made a pull request https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/pull/3305
